Today we have Designer Shaunte Wadley creating for us using one of our favorites, Black Magic Cardstock. Get out that Sand it Set because sanding Black Magic is F-U-N!

Here is a little bit about this layout from Shaunte: ” I used Black Magic for everything but the journaling and the Flowers. Those are Whitewash (journaling) and Core Essentials (flowers.) I think it is pretty cool how well the colors matched between collections.
The title letters were a fun technique! I distressed them–the letters were too narrow for pop-dots–I would have had to cut them down a lot, so the Liquid Scrap Dots worked great! The end result looks like crumpled chipboard because of the dimension the Scrap Dots gave the letters.
I used the 450 Quick Dry adhesive as a base for glitter to stick to, to give a sort-of custom brad look to my side border on the photo.

I just bought a Fir tree die. I’m planning on using my core’dinations paper for the trees. After they are embossed I can sand them and get a weathered look.
Christmas cards designed, now I need to get in and start working.

PS – This week it is great seeing Helmar work so well with the challenges the Core’dinations DT are putting it through. I am a self confessed 450 Quick Dry addict and this week I am getting tempted to try more from the Helmar range 🙂

You really ensure it is appear very easy with the presentation but I locate this matter being actually one thing which I feel I’d never understand. It form of feels way too complicated and vast for me. I am taking a look ahead on your next submit, I’ll attempt to get the hold of it!
